What's the actual passing score for CCN? Getting conflicting info

Same boat a few months ago. Here's what I'd tell myself:

The CCN exam is more concept-focused than the study guides suggest. They test whether you understand CCN, not just whether you can define it.

My tip: when you see a scenario question, mentally walk through it step by step before looking at the answers. The wrong answers are designed to catch people who jump to conclusions.

Good luck — the fact that you're doing this level of prep means you're going to be fine.

Great discussion. One thing nobody mentions: sleep the night before matters more than one more study session. Went in fully rested for my CCN and felt sharper than expected.

Coming back to this thread — just passed my CCN yesterday. Everything about the ccn practice test section is accurate. For anyone still studying, the free ccn medication administration emergency response was the closest thing to the real exam I found.

Just hit 78% on my last practice run so I'm finally feeling like the score is within reach. I've been using a bunch of different resources but honestly the free ccn security protocols interdisciplinary collaboration questions helped me a lot with the sections I was weakest on. Planning to sit the real exam in about three weeks.

On your actual question, from everything I've seen 70% is the number most people reference but it's worth double-checking with your specific certifying body since some programs do set it slightly higher. Don't overthink it too much. Just keep pushing your practice scores above 75% and you'll have a comfortable buffer either way.
